Actress Nkechi Blessing makes confession on how she sponsors her trips abroad

Posted: 06 Feb 2020 09:30 PM PST

Actress Nkechi Blessing has revealed that it took her three months to save the money she used to sponsor a trip she took abroad.

She made this known after actress Tonto Dikeh exposed people who share pictures from their expensive vacations which some people see and get pulled into depression.

While sharing a "quick advice for young hustling people", Tonto Dikeh wrote:


"A lot of you come on social media to see people who are having a great time with exotic trips and vacation, and you slip into depression, what you don't know is that many people plan and save towards their trips. Some people plan a year before or even two years. A beautiful photo that shows a vacation might be a result of saving for many years. Don't be deceived into thinking it's that easy.

It is not. Even the flashy cars and houses and phones you see with rich people, they plan and save towards it. They won't tell you, all you know is that they just got a house. Go and ask them how long it took to save up, and the sacrifices they made to gather up the finances."See, it's never really too rosy for people as it seems on social media. Just keep working hard. Save for important things. Save to spoil yourself".

In response to the advice, Nkechi Blessing shared as seen in the screenshot below.

Donald Trump Emerge Victorious, As US Senate Ends Impeachment Trial

Donald Trump Emerge Victorious, As US Senate Ends Impeachment Trial
United States of America

The US Senate has voted to acquit President Donald Trump of impeachment charges brought by the House Democrats, ending the attempt to oust him from the White House ahead of the November 2020 elections.

The process kicked off in September 2019, over allegations that Trump improperly sought foreign influence in the 2020 election by demanding a corruption investigation in Ukraine.

Last week, the Senate rejected a proposal by Democrats to call additional witnesses, in a 49-51 vote that saw Susan Collins (R-Maine) and Mitt Romney (R-Utah) cross the aisle. The president's lawyers argued that all the relevant testimonies and documents should have been produced during the proceedings in the House, which ended on December 18, 2019 with a partisan vote to impeach Trump.

No House Republicans supported the articles of impeachment. They were joined by two Democrats who voted against the first article and three who voted against the second, while another – presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii) – voted "present" on both.

Even though the Democrats argued that impeachment was necessary because Trump was a "clear and present danger" to "our democracy," House Speaker Nancy then waited four weeks to send the case to the Senate.

There, Democrats argued that additional witnesses were needed to establish the exact circumstances of Trump's decision to withhold military aid to Ukraine in order to – they claimed – pressure the government in Kiev into investigating a political rival ahead of the 2020 election.

The claim originated with an unnamed intelligence community "whistleblower," who alerted House Intelligence Committee chair Adam Schiff (D-California) of the phone call between Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in July 2019. Schiff and his team of impeachment managers argued that Trump withholding the aid was an attempt at pressuring Kiev into investigating corruption at Burisma, a gas company that had hired the son of Vice President Joe Biden in 2014.

Biden is now one of the candidates for the 2020 presidential nomination, and Democrats argued this amounted to foreign interference in the election. Calling this an abuse of power, Democrats also charged Trump with "obstruction of Congress" for invoking executive privilege and refusing to allow some of the White House officials to testify in impeachment proceedings.

Trump's lawyers argued that Schiff's subpoenas had no validity until the House voted to actually authorize the impeachment process, on October 31. They also said that the president's actions were perfectly consistent with his constitutional authority, that investigating Burisma did not amount to Ukrainian interference in US elections, and that Trump was denied due process rights because Democrats did not give the Republican minority a hearing day or the right to call their own witnesses

The acquittal comes a day after Trump's triumphant State of the Union speech, and the embarrassing fiasco of the Democrats' caucuses in Iowa, where even according to incomplete and questionable results, Biden ended up fourth.

Trump is only the third US president ever to be impeached in the House, after Andrew Johnson in 1868 and Bill Clinton in 1999. In all three cases, the impeachment failed in the Senate, allowing the president to stay in office. Contrary to popular opinion, Richard Nixon was never impeached – he resigned before the official proceedings could begin, in August 1973.

President of Actors Guild, speaks on Ernest Azuzu’s illness

Posted: 06 Feb 2020 04:30 AM PST

The President, Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN), Mr. Emeka Rollas, has finally spoken on the plan of the AGN board over the rehabilitation of actor Ernest Asuzu, who has been down with a stroke for years.

Ernest was seen begging on the streets of Lagos a few days ago.

Speaking with NAN, Emeka Rollas said;

"We appreciate all the concerns and show of love from members and the public over Asuzu's plight, but I need to point out here that AGN has never abandoned him.

"He went for rehabilitation at the Mercy Land Christ Deliverance Ministry, Warri, Delta, by Prophet Jeremiah Omoto Fufeyin, a spiritual patron of our guild. "He spent some months and recovered," he said. Rollas added that Fufeyin gave Asuzu gifts including money and a jeep, after the rehabilitation, to further support him. " Since he left Warri, we have not heard from him."

He continued saying;

"All of a sudden, the young man made a defamatory video. "We totally frown at this erroneous and misdirected act because it is unimaginable to think or believe that we did not play a role to an actor who has fallen due to hard times. "The point I am driving at here is that it is unfair to blame an entire industry for the unfortunate turnaround of one of its own," the AGN boss said.

Uche Maduagwu: “Approaching 30 or above and not married does not mean you have a problem”

Posted: 06 Feb 2020 04:00 AM PST

Nollywood actor, Uche Maduagwu has advised single Nigerian ladies not to stress themselves about marriage, stating that it is not a privilege or luck.

Dishing out the advice via his Instagram page, Maduagwu noted that approaching 30 without getting married doesn't mean there is a problem, adding that marriage does not define anybody.

He wrote:

"Marriage does not define you, approaching 30 or above and not married does not mean you have a problem… Dear ladies, #marriage is not a privilege or luck, but a choice. Stop making people treat you as if there is something spiritually wrong with you simply because your #friends or sisters are all #married and you are yet to, this is 2020, ignore or stay far away from people with that mentality.

If you choose to hang around or listen to such people, they will not only spoil your #happy mood, but also lure you into putting unnecessary pressure on the person you are currently in a beautiful #relationship with. #Wedding takes place in a day, but marriage is meant to be for a #life time, so if its taking you much time to selecting the most suitable man to journey with you on a marriage path of a life time, is the waiting not worth it?"
